I don’t even understand the point of this app. Nothing is EVER accurate, from payment history to upcoming payments. It’s a shame because we all know it’s a pain in the ass to call CS. I deleted the app, there honestly is zero point.
What a waste

Half the reason we have the app is to see letters sooner since the update no letters are displayed received a statement in the mail still no letters in the app
Should be zero stars. Bad programming black screen. Can’t reboot

Version 3.0.3
An absolute painful application to use. Just like their phone systems. They should be ashamed.
Starts first time, asks for login.
Warns you to use pin from then on.
Shut down app
Restart app
Black screen. Cannot reboot iPhone X as up and power doesn’t work . Every time. Only app that does it.
Have to wait for power to run dry.
Shameful user testing.
Appalling, totally useless

Version 3.0.3
There is no means of getting income assessed in order to determine payments.
There is no way of contacting the department - the app just directs you to the child support phone line.
This App is nothing more than a way of obstructing the public from contacting a government department.
Please Fix Payment Information

Version 3.0.2
Can you please amend the part of your app that says how much is OWING, not just amount due. The previous version would say what was remaining to pay for the month after payments were made, Now, it does not.
Thank You.

Version 3.0.1
Sometimes I can log in.. sometimes I can’t.
Most of the time all I get is a black screen.
Still the same information, but set up differently. Can only see the debt owed of you go into payment history, unlike previous update where it was all there.
No inbox update (prior to update I had 20+ letters in my inbox.. now 0.. even though there should be at least two recent ones..)
Pointless.
And always leads you to calling anyway...
Useless

The app used to be bad but after the recent upgrade it is totally useless!!!! Payment history used to show anticipated payment date but new app shows when payment was received and doesn’t show when payment is expected to be received - worst app ever!!!
Absolutely ridiculous

Version 2.1.0
This is unusable. I’m sure others have said this - such a waste when it’s an integral app to human services. Staff haven’t been able to provide any answers about if it will ever be up and working. Leaves you phoning up for simple questions which could be answered in app.
Previous updates I found to work sporadically at least, this one has never worked. No update in SIX MONTHS!!! Not good enough. That is way too long for a fix in my opinion.
Such a disappointment for parents who are just as time restricted as the rest. Being on the phone for long waits can be torturous in some situations. The focus should be on the app improvement ASAP - then we can always focus on the most important, our Children.
Never works

CSA App Useless –
2019-04-17
Version 2.1.0
I have contacted CSA 11 times now over the past 3yrs to report functions of the app that simply do not work. If you click on the ‘Update Income Estimate’ or ‘Change in Care’ it shuts you out of the app and you have to log back in again....... 3yrs of complaining and nothing gets fixed. It’s a disgrace and whoever runs this organisation should be sacked. I won’t even talk about the half hour on hold to speak to anyone.
Never updated info

Version 2.1.0
Think app was working fine until recently. But this last week it comes up with “technical error” while logging in. Then it logs me out. Then it’s like opening it for the first time and asks me for a PIN number to access the app, when I type in the existing PIN it says I’ve used that number before. I now have entered that many new PINs I can’t remember what’s what..... very frustrating. Just let me use my existing number and stop logging me out!!!!

Unable to log in and haven’t been able too for a long time, I don’t know what is up with this app and how their services work online but I can’t access CS from mygov either. You’d think with the technology available they’d be able to work it out, but seems they would much rather sit on the phone to customers complaining
Stuck

I cannot access the app. I call and they keep referring me to the app. It’s like a Catch-22 loop.
Family issues are hard enough without this added stress.
Please someone fix this. There are (tax-paying) people trying to do the right thing for their (Australian citizen) children,
In need of an Update

Version 2.1.0
No Fingerprint or Face ID login.
I’m now due DZD amounts as it doesn’t want to show properly on my new iPhone. Had heaps of problems having 2 phones connected to the one account.
Update Jan 2019
My pet peeve is having to change my password every 3 months. Like clockwork. I don’t even have to do this for my centerlink app. I don’t even know why we need a password when they’d first have to manipulate my face in order to get into my phone anyway.
It also used to tell me my last payments and this has been missing for quite some time. I’m curious to know when I was last payed CS seeing as I have quite a significant debt owing to me.
I would have complained to the developers but the App Support link doesn’t have it. Might want to do something about that too. Then you could maybe troubleshoot genuine bugs.
For those having problems with logging in with the myGov user name. Wait for all the characters to change to a blue dot before pressing done/submit.

For a govt dept. this is an appalling app. Half the time I try to use it, it asks me to reset my pin and of course you cant use your previous pin and so cant keep up with all the different previous pins! Then the other half of the time I cant log on because it has issues!

This app hasn’t worked for a good 2 years and with a 1 star rating and it well known that it doesn’t work they still don’t do anything or remove it from the store. The my.gov site is also useless in giving correct information also so you have to take time off work to call them and wait on hold for 1-2 hours. Thanks guys.
Express plus child support.

Version 2.0.5
After many years of being unable to access letters etc from CSA on a MAC computer, this seemed like a great opportunity to streamline payments etc.
However, the app is completely useless. No, it’s worse than that. Had to reset password in an attempt to get it to work, which then screwed up existing password etc for other MyGov apps.
Now the app loads, however, has no functionality what so ever.
